On a restaurant not far from the Guogong Mansion, the British Duke stared at the stage in the distance, his heart full of excitement. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Wizards, what geniuses! One night, turn decay into magic. The British public was greatly admired by Hou Guoxing.

"The great kindness of the grandfather of the country, the small one will never forget." Liu Fu, the owner of the Wanfu rice store, knelt on the ground with tears in his eyes and spoke.

British Gong Zhang Weixian turned around, looked at Liu Fu kneeling beside him, stretched his lower brows, and said with a smile:

"It's all a family, there's nothing to help or can't help, and it's your ability to help you."

It turned out that Hou Guoxing's meeting gift to the Duke of England yesterday was the position of a duke.

After the British public received the greeting gift, Hou Guoxing said that he was not able to buy the materials of these merchants at a high price. If possible, he was willing to exchange the title in his hand for the material goods of the merchants.

The British Duke knew very well the value of the duke in his hand, and he took Hou Guoxing back to the living room with him to introduce the benefits of these titles to these businessmen. I hope everyone will exchange material things for knighthoods.

Who knew that these monkey spirit merchants immediately changed their faces, and one by one they pressed the price to the extreme, and the highest was only 100,000 taels of silver in exchange for a first-class marquis.

That's it, as if he still saw the face of his grandfather, Hou Guoxing almost turned his face on the spot.

Later, it was this Liu Fu, under his own instructions several times, gritted his teeth, and said that 300,000 stone grain in exchange for the position of a duke, which did not make the grandfather of the country not too embarrassed.

"Liu Fu, how much silver do you think this second-class duke is worth?" After the British Duke finished speaking, he smiled at Liu Fu.

Grandpa Guo, the small one promised 300,000 taels within 2 months, will be sent to the thousands of households, and 500,000 taels of silver will be prepared for Grandpa Guo. After speaking, he looked up at the British duke, and said:

"But this small man of silver may not be able to turn around for a while......"

"It's okay!" The British Duke was not afraid that anyone would dare to lazy his account, and he waved his hand and continued:

"The next time I see your sister-in-law, remember to talk to him about it, don't keep making a fuss about it, saying that I don't take care of you."

"The little one understands, the little sister is not sensible, and you are angry with Grandpa Guo......"

Liu Fu knew very well that if it weren't for the Duke of England, he would not have been able to get a second-class duke. Liu Fu, who originally felt that he had lost a lot of money yesterday, scolded the British Duke who pressured him to hand over 300,000 stones of grain and grass today.

300,000 stone of grain, in this year, if you don't buy it, it's a million taels of silver.

The position of the prince of the country, although he is red-eyed, as long as he presses it, he will take it for 200,000 taels of silver.

But a day later, looking at the current situation, even if a businessman of his level doesn't do anything, he must at least donate 350,000 taels of silver in order not to lose his reputation for picking skins for a week.

If you want to be the prince of the country, you don't have to think about it.

"Grandpa Guo, can you let Hou Qianhu be accommodating and leave a few marqu......is for everyone" A few businessmen on the side looked depressed, hoping that the British Duke would help to be accommodating.

"A bunch of visionless waste, who want a knighthood, fight for it themselves." The British duke, who was in a happy mood, couldn't help but curse when he saw this group of wastes kneeling on the ground.

Before arriving at the door, the British Duke turned back to Liu Fu and said:

"Tonight, the Houfu may be full of guests, and the 20,000 stone grain from the grain store will be sent over, remember to be in place at one time, and the scene will be bigger!"

…………………..

The next day, the vehicles of the major shops in front of the Hou Mansion had already lined up in a long line.

In the land of Beijing, rich businessmen gathered. The number of those who had money was innumerable.

There is no way, there are only twenty places in total. It's late, I'm afraid that I can only be a copper-smelling Zhou Pao skin for the rest of my life.

The most serious thing is that they are a group of Zhou Peeling, and after seeing those twenty Lei Feng in the future, they have to nod their heads and bow down.

"Master Hak, we've been waiting for a few hours, when will Lord Qianhu let us in."

Wang Wanbao, the proprietor of the Fuyun Grain Store who came to visit early in the morning, bowed to Ke Fugui and asked.

"Oh, hello Master Liu!" The guest who was sitting at the door responded with a pretentious arch hand, not to mention how cool it was in his heart.

Although these people are just businessmen, they are also big names in Jingshi, and now they have to nod their heads when they look at him.

"No, no, if you don't dislike it, just call my brother."

Wang Wanbao held the hand of wealth with a smile on his face, as if he was really a buddy for many years.

Ke Fugui glanced at the silver ticket that Wang Wanbao secretly stuffed into the palm of his hand, and was overjoyed. coughed a few times, looked around mysteriously and said:

Master Liu, why did you come, Grandpa Liu took a few big proprietors in Jingshi very early. ”

Ke Fugui looked at Wang Wanbao with a look that you understand.

"Seriously!" Wang Dabao's heart tightened.

"Also, my cousin will rush to the Erhu area tomorrow and start transporting grain by sea, so this is the best day." Ke Fugui said again.

"In such a hurry!"

While the two were talking, Zhang Mao, a hundred households in the cavalry team, sent Liu Fu and the others out. Behind him, a few soldiers came out carrying a red plaque.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Lord Qianhu said that tomorrow I will rush to Erhu to transport grain, and I don't have time to meet you one by one."

Zhang Mao arched his hand to everyone as he spoke, and continued:

"The disaster situation is urgent, the victims are waiting to be fed, and we hope that all the owners will donate enthusiastically. In the evening, you will meet with the top 100 owners on the red list. ”

After speaking, on which plaque was written the names of the owners who had just entered:

"Master Xu Dacheng of the civilian grain store donated 5,000 taels."

"Master Zhang Wuji of Wuji Cloth Village donated five thousand taels."

"Qiao Feng Jewelry Store Master Qiao donated 4,000 taels"

After Liu Fu walked out of the Hou Mansion with a few merchants, he arched his hand to the surrounding people and said:

"All the owners, the famine is ruthless, my father just discussed with Hou Qianhu, and decided to donate 20,000 stones of grain and grass to Shandong ......"

"Liu Fu, you are fighting with your net worth, are you going to sleep on ......the street in the future?"

Before Liu Fu finished speaking, there was a rival in the business field, and he secretly mocked.

"Bold, Grandpa Liu's name is called by you and other untouchables?" The soldier next to Liu Fu went up and gave the merchant who opened his mouth a big-eared scraper.

"Don't you salute when you see Liu Lianggong?"

Zhang Mao, who was writing on the plaque, walked up, stared at everyone and said coldly.

(Note: I don't know if the pirated chapter has any effect, hehe, continue to send some of the Ming Dynasty mining tax struggle plot, change it in two hours.) From the above, we can see that the story of the mining tax is some fairy tale.

Therefore, if we want to understand the relevant history of the mining tax at the end of the Ming Dynasty, we should put aside the political propaganda covered by the clouds. And use a logic that is more in line with common sense and reasonableness to gradually restore its truth.

In other words, we have to figure out what caused the imperial officials (and even the great eunuchs) to join the tide against the mining tax.

If it is because these officials (even the big eunuchs) are worried about the country and the people, and love the country and the people, they oppose the mining tax. Leave that to the conference; Because that's the standard pretense; Pretending to be forced on the Internet, isn't that self-deprecating and boring?

Mine tax covered by clouds

The issue of mining tax is too complicated. I think that to analyze the mining tax, we must first interpret the word unspoken rules for you according to my understanding. Then the concept of a black economy was introduced; On this basis, it may be easier for everyone to understand when analyzing the mining tax.

However, thanks to netizens who want to look down, if I started at the beginning, I went around it directly. I'm really sorry for the netizens who want to look down. Therefore, here I will try to analyze the mining tax with the black economy.

Here, I will first introduce the concept of a black economy. I will analyze this word in detail later, but here is just to give you a more intuitive concept of mining tax, so I will briefly talk about it.

What is the black economy? It's an economy that the government can't control.

Why can't the government control this economy? An important reason is because this economy is illegal.

Many economic activities are illegal; However, who knows that this kind of economic activity, which is widespread in society, and the total amount of the economy associated with it, is a very huge number.

For example, in my dynasty, it is illegal to have sex with relatives now. The problem is that one does not speak with one's eyes closed. It should be known that there are millions, even tens of millions, of people who are engaged in sex and parenting in our dynasty; How much turnover does such a large industry generate each year? It's definitely an astronomical amount. If the government collects taxes, the taxes collected in a year must be astronomical

However, we must also know one more thing, the sex pro-industry does not need to pay taxes, because this kind of industry does not need to be licensed, nor can it be licensed.

The question is, does this mean that the sex pro-industry really doesn't need to pay taxes? Apparently not. Because, with such a huge economic activity, there must be a huge organization to manage it and regulate the related interests. It is only a related function, and it is not directly carried out by the government.

Therefore, the strict tax can usually only be reflected in the form of protection fees. This part of the money is naturally divided by the white and underworld partners. Of course, the state treasury will also receive a part in other forms, but it will only receive a part of it forever (for example, the sex relatives industry often also uses the legal status of selling dog meat on the head of a sheep to pay taxes).

Relevant economic activities, as long as a person has the common sense of normal adult society, will know that it is not prohibited at all. This is because there are so many people who profit from this kind of economic activity, and it also has a very solid and broad mass base.

In this context, if there are really officials in accordance with laws and regulations, severely crack down on relevant illegal acts. It will definitely cause infamy, because people who are engaged in this industry, is it easy to eat? People are not corrupt, and they also enrich the spare time life of the people, so why don't you give people a little way to live?
